Having previously ridden Home Shotgun in the
"Silkmobile" this past January, albeit I prefer calling him
Marmaduke; Hya! With Tacoma Bureau Chief Mary Ellen chauffeuring me back home
via the Redwoods, Big Sur, Monterey, Sebastopol, Astoria and all places
Northwards.

this is too priceless - to not post on Ye 'Ol
BLOB' as thou Awntie' Harriet Christened it a zillion years ago...

Typically,
I don't sit down for lunch this early. But Wayback on Mon, Feb 26th, around
12:15PM I did my usual of turning on Thy Telie' for background noise. whilst Eating
lunch and running into the nauseating myriad 'O Commercials, I began channel
surfing & SHUHZAMM!

Bouncin'
over to the History Channel, it was their American Pickers show, and I came in mid-sentence to the guy named Mike saying
you've got a Delorean? Can we take a look at it? WTF?

Hey
Frank! It's from your Favourite movie... As these car's were weird & Nobody
had ever seen 'em!

Mike Wolfe
then gave a very brief recap of the Delorean DMC-12's history. Noting how John
Delorean was a GM Hotshot Executive, who I know his previous claim to fame was
the Pontiac GTO.

Mike Mentioned how the car came out in '81 and
was only built for two years. And with our country in recession then, nobody
bought them, but now they're getting rare.

No idea what
state they were in, since I came in the middle of the show's episode. Which
although I was watching it on February 26th, I've since deduced it was a Re-run.

Since
apparently the Official 2018 Season 19 didn't begin until April 9th, when
episode #248 titled Adrenalin Junkies, ironically filmed in California aired.
Since I'd just posted the picture of another famous car from California just
days earlier...

And they'd
already pushed it out of its garage when I tuned in, just moments before Mike
sez' can I sit in it? sure, go ahead.

As he
noted the Duo were Junior's in High School when the car came out, and now in
their late 40's, they can afford to buy it.

Mike
said Yuhs need a Shoehorn to get in 'N out of it! Let me know, has it ever been
in an accident? Not to my knowledge. But let me tell you it's got a scratched
up fender, which I bought a new one for.

Huh? You can still get parts? Oh yeah,
you can buy a brand new 2012-spec car. A man in Texas bought everything &
is building them...

As I've never
heard this, but then again I really Don't follow cars too closely anymore,
since I cannot see 'em...

How
'bout $11,000 cash; NOPE! I've got two sons who are interested in the car... To
which the two Pickers said they understood & walked away from their
haggling. Ok, let's push it back in. To which afterwards, the owner said, I'm
not gonna give it away. And if I am, I'll give it to my sons...

As Y'all can check out this Youtube' video upon the
somewhat new DMCH Company's "Main Man" Stephen Wynne and his facility
in Humble, Texas below. As wonders never cease, now having just learned that
Thars' reputedly a new Delorean Dealership in Bellevue, Washington of All
places!
